Overview
Del coautor de Outlive, número uno del New York Times, con más de 2 millones de ejemplares vendidos.
Una exploración innovadora sobre la capacidad de nuestro cuerpo para adaptarse a temperaturas extremas y aprovechar el calor para alcanzar una salud óptima.
«Fascinante». —James Nestor, autor bestseller de Respira
¿Y si la clave para prosperar en un mundo cada vez más cálido no fuera evitar el calor, sino aprender a aprovecharlo a nuestro favor?
En Nacidos para sudar, el periodista científico Bill Gifford nos guía en una exploración fascinante del poder del sudor para mejorar nuestro rendimiento y nuestra salud. Combinando ciencia de vanguardia, experiencias personales y consejos prácticos, revela que la adaptación al calor y terapias térmicas como la sauna activan los mecanismos naturales del cuerpo que favorecen la longevidad y la resiliencia.
Para ello, el autor:
A través de investigaciones innovadoras en biología evolutiva, fisiología y termorregulación, este libro muestra que los seres humanos evolucionamos para prosperar en condiciones sofocantes, y que reactivar esta ventaja ancestral nos ayudará a rendir mejor, a prolongar la vida de manera saludable y a adaptarnos a un planeta cada vez más cálido.
A lo largo de estas páginas descubrirás que el sudor es mucho más que un mecanismo de refrigeración: es clave para lograr el máximo rendimiento. Nacimos para sudar, y sudar nos hace más fuertes.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
From the #1 New York Times bestselling coauthor of Outlive comes a radical exploration of the science of heat adaptation and sweat therapy to tap into the evolutionary superpowers that we’ve forgotten we possess.
What if the key to thriving in a hotter world isn’t avoiding the heat—but harnessing it?
In Hotwired, bestselling author and science journalist Bill Gifford takes readers on a fascinating exploration of the power of heat to improve our performance and our health. Combining cutting-edge science, personal discovery, and practical insights, Gifford reveals how heat adaptation and heat therapy such as sauna can make us healthier, stronger, and even happier, by unlocking the body’s built-in tools to promote longevity and resilience.
Through innovative research in evolutionary biology, physiology, and thermoregulation, Gifford uncovers how humans evolved to excel in sweltering conditions—and how we’ve lost touch with this ancient advantage. He plunges into the steamy world of Finnish saunas, serves as a test subject in cutting-edge heat labs, and tackles a grueling 100-mile bike ride under the blazing Texas sun—to show how temperature extremes can expand our physical and mental limits. He even explores how infrared sauna therapy may fight depression more effectively than medication—and how many people are rediscovering the power of communal wellness through the use of social sauna.
Whether you’re looking to perform better, extend your healthy lifespan, adapt to a warming planet, or tap into the human connection that forms when we sweat together, Gifford reveals the incredible benefits of reawakening your body’s natural adaptability to heat and cold. You’ll discover how sweat is more than a cooling mechanism; it’s central to peak performance. We were born to sweat, and sweating makes us stronger.
Hotwired shows how short-term discomfort transforms into long-term power. It’s a thrilling call to reimagine heat—not as a threat, but as a tool for survival and strength.

Para ello, el autor:
- se adentra en el mundo vaporoso de las saunas finlandesas,
- se presta como sujeto de estudio en laboratorios de calor de última generación,
- afronta una ruta en bicicleta de ciento sesenta kilómetros bajo el sol abrasador de Texas,
- explora cómo la terapia de infrarrojos podría combatir la depresión con mayor eficacia que algunos medicamentos.
